AM Radio Reception 2015 Edge
Wubster100 replied to Dmtaurus's topic in Audio, Backup, Navigation & SYNC
@Dmtaurus AM/ FM Radio When the AM/ FM mode is selected, the radio amplifies radio waves sent from the antenna. It then selects the requested frequency, converts and amplifies the content. These fluctuating audio signals are output as AC output voltage to power the speakers or as an input to a separate amplifier. If equipped with a FM2 diversity antenna, FM radio waves are collected and sent to be amplified by the FM2 diversity antenna amplifier. A coaxial antenna cable sends the amplified signal to the ACM. An ACM antenna signal comparator uses both antenna signals to reduce or eliminate FM distortion in poor signal environments. If equipped with HD Radio capability, the radio will automatically detect and playback the improved sound quality and multiple programs of HD broadcasts. AM/ FM1 Antenna The AM/ FM1 antenna (also called the audio unit antenna) is an on-glass antenna, mounted to the left side of the rear window. It receives AM/ FM radio waves and sends them through the audio unit antenna amplifier to the ACM via the audio unit antenna coaxial cable (also called the AM/ FM1 antenna coaxial cable). AM/ FM1 Antenna Amplifier The AM/ FM1 antenna amplifier (also called the audio unit antenna amplifier) amplifies AM/ FM radio signals to improve reception. The amplified signal is sent through a coaxial cable to the ACM. The amplifier is powered by the ACM through the coaxial cable. FM2 Diversity Antenna The FM2 diversity antenna is an on-glass antenna, mounted to the right side of the rear window. The FM2 diversity antenna improves FM reception in urban areas or anywhere large objects reflect FM signals and create multiple FM signal paths. FM2 Diversity Antenna Amplifier The FM2 diversity antenna amplifier amplifies FM radio signals and transmits them through a coaxial cable to the ACM. Voltage for the amplifier is provided by the ACM through the coaxial cable. GPS/Satellite Radio Antenna The GPS/satellite radio antenna contains a GPS antenna circuit board that receives radio waves containing GPS and satellite radio data (vehicles equipped with a satellite radio). The data is sent through the coaxial cable to the APIM ( GPS data) and through a splitter to the ACM (satellite radio data). Cellular Antenna If equipped, the audio unit antenna contains a cellular antenna circuit board that receives radio waves containing cellular data. The data is sent through the cellular antenna coaxial cable to the TCU. TCU Antenna The TCU antenna is used is used to boost reception for incoming and outgoing cellular network data. It is a compact, cellular phone type, planar inverted-F antenna -

The "sail" on the roof is the satellite radio antenna. -

Comprehensive List of Possible Forscan Mods?
Wubster100 replied to ben senise's topic in Accessories & Modifications
I don’t see too many options. https://cyanlabs.net/asbuilt-db/ipc-type2a/ -
I tried to get it to work a little while ago, but one of my modules, it might have been ABS, I don’t remember which one, was unable to support auto hold. I could not get the auto hold switch to appear on screen. I don’t have the latest version of Sync 4. The Lincoln Nautilus has auto hold though.

Have you tried searching for climate repeater in FORscan? It should be under IPC configuration and programming. -

2020 SEL - Where to penetrate the firewall?

Why do you need to go through the firewall? What is the goal of the project? -
Does the static happen while bluetooth and WiFi is enabled? Could there be confusion with bluetooth only vs. carplay/android auto?

It looks like auto hold gets switched on and off through the APIM rather than a physical switch.

Has anyone used auto hold? Is it a feature for North America or other regions? From the WSM: Auto Hold The auto hold feature is activated and deactivated through the use of the auto hold switch. For the system to activate, the vehicle must not be moving, the driver safety belt must be buckled and the driver door must be closed. The ABS receives the driver safety belt buckle status from the RCM, driver door status from the BCM, brake system pressure and the wheel speed sensors allow the ABS module to determine if the vehicle is stopped. Once the previous conditions have been met the auto hold feature can be activated. Once the auto hold feature is activated, the driver presses the brake pedal and the ABS module closes the isolation valves in the HCU to maintain the current brake system pressure at the wheel ends. The ABS module maintains the pressure until the driver presses the accelerator pedal, shifts the transmission into PARK or after a specific time limit has been reached. The ABS module engages the parking brake after 2-10 minutes, depending on the grade of incline the vehicle is currently stopped on, the steeper the grade, the shorter the time.

Trailer wiring harness
Wubster100 replied to jacobusrex's topic in Cargo, Hauling, Roof Racks & Towing
If you have trailer wiring from the factory, the wiring will connect to a trailer tow module. -
I recently drained 3.7 quarts out and replaced with Valvoline ULV.

Very nice! I only have the default speaker system in mine. -
When I go downhill in normal D mode, there is some engine braking when I press the brakes, but I feel a lot more engine breaking in S mode.

I have to go into S mode to get engine breaking when going down hill.

You CAN Turn Your Liftgate Kick Sensor Off (Gen2)
Wubster100 replied to Gadgetjq's topic in Accessories & Modifications
You would have to test different settings in FORScan to see if you can get the toggle switch back. Unfortunately I don't have a power liftgate to test with. -
All 12 parking sensors are operational. Thank you @Haz for providing the requested documents. I have temporarily taped on the additional 8 sensors. I am able to hear the beeping and I get a visual aid on screen. I need to order the brackets that hold the parking sensors in place. It looks like the spots to drill holes already marked with X’s. I may also order the park aid on/off switch if the parking sensors cannot be turned off through software switches. I decided to not complete active park assist at this time because I don’t want to get 2 new rear ABS sensors. I am not sure if I would also need to get the 2 more expensive parking sensors in the front. Right now I am using 8 of the same non-OEM sensors and they are working well.

You can get OEM ambient LEDs and connect them to the BCM. Then you can enable them with FORScan. You could also get any 12v LED strips and connect them to a circuit or power source.

Wubster100 replied to slides's topic in All Wheel Drive (AWD)
I just drained mine and 3.5 liters came out. I am having trouble with the snap ring. I tried to start filling the transmission but only a little bit went in, and the rest leaked out because I didn’t remove the funnel thing that is blocking it.
